1% BL Romance, 99% Chaos
The Cursed Love has a great premise, but I don’t think it was executed well. Watching this series feels like solving abstract algebra — it made me question whether I was slow or something, because most of the time I had no idea what was happening. But honestly? I don’t think that’s the case. I’ve watched over 200 BL series, and even the most complex one I’ve seen — 4Minutes — still made complete sense to me. This one? Not so much.
I get that the plot revolves around reincarnation — all three characters coming back to life and trying to change their fate — but like I said, it wasn’t carried out properly. The script is messy and all over the place, and so many things just don’t make sense. Like… someone gets struck by lightning and suddenly becomes a zombie?
It’s a shame because the actors can definitely act, especially considering they’re rookies. They deserved a much better plot and script. There is chemistry between the leads, but the sweet moments are so limited. And because the romance clearly isn’t the main focus, it’s hard to connect emotionally. If you’re here for pure BL romance, I’m warning you now — stay away.
Every episode throws in some exaggerated scene or over-the-top event, to the point where it becomes unbelievable. Episode 1 already feels like a climax because of how extreme everything is. My brain was overwhelmed from the start. Still, out of curiosity — and because I like giving shows the benefit of the doubt — I continued watching. It does get slightly better around episode 6, and I finally understood some parts… but the overall chaos was still too much.
For a supernatural/action series, the episodes should have been longer. It really feels like they squeezed the entire story into just 8 episodes. Even the ending was unsatisfying and rushed.
That said, the things I did like were the actors, the cinematography, the filming location, and the OST.
All in all, this is the most disorganized BL series I’ve ever watched. I’m sorry, but whoever wrote and directed this must’ve been out of their mind — or not entirely sober while making it.
